Serving Montana’s seniors, families and rural communities is demanding work. Carepolicy equips you with state-ready manuals and hands-on guidance so you can launch, expand or tighten compliance with confidence. From home health and hospice to assisted living, adult day, mental health and substance use programs , our Montana provider policies, procedures & resources align to current state rules and survey expectations. Pair your policy kits with 1-on-1 licensing support to navigate DPHHS applications, mock surveys and Medicaid enrolment without the guesswork. Montana’s ageing population and workforce realities mean you need clean documentation and efficient onboarding to stay survey-ready and competitive. We help you do both. Montana’s Office of Inspector General Licensure Bureau is your primary regulator for healthcareand residential facilities, and our materials map directly to their standards.  

Montana Licensing Overview

Most Montana health and residential providers are licensed by the Department of Public Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General, Licensure Bureau. Core steps typically include submitting the DPHHS application, undergoing an initial survey or inspection, meeting background check and training standards, paying fees and maintaining written policies and procedures. After licensure, many providers also pursue Medicaid enrolment or Medicare certification as applicable. Carepolicy offers Montana care provider licensing consultations to sequence these steps, prepare documents and guide you through surveys. Home health and hospice currently do not require a certificate of need in Montana, simplifying startup for many agencies.

Montana State Specific FAQs

Q1) How long does initial licensure take in Montana? 

Timeframes vary by provider type and survey readiness, but the process generally includes application review plus a pre-licensure inspection. ARM 37.106.310 outlines DPHHS procedures for issuing licences, including inspection and up to a 3-year licence when standards are met. Our consultations sequence the milestone and prep your survey binder. 

Q2) Do Montana home health or hospice agencies need a certification of need? 

DPHHS guidance letters indicate no certificate of need is required for home health or hospice, reducing barriers to entry compared to some states. We align policies to ARM and Medicare CoPs so you can license and pursue certification efficiently.

Q3) What written policies are mandatory across Montana facilities? 

Montana requires a current, implemented policy and procedure manual describing all services available to staff, residents, representatives and the department. Care policy templates are mapped to ARM 37.106.330 and facility-specific rules to support a clean survey.

Q4) How do background checks and staff training work for residential settings like assisted living or youth facilities? 

Requirements are provider-specific. For example, assisted living administrators must complete defined training and continuing education, and youth care facilities have detailed staff training rules. Our kits include role-based competency checklists to document compliance. 

Q5) What about non-medical personal care or HCBS billing in Montana? 

Agency-based personal care under community first choice/personal care services is a Medicaid enrolment pathway rather than a state facility licence. Providers enrol through the state’s system and comply with electronic visit verification for PCS and certain home health services. We include enrolment checklists and EVV policy language.

Patiently Helpful

I am working with a team therefore it took a little time to get the documents together. Also, my laptop went down on me so I was not uploading to the Google document drive correctly. Anton, who has been helping me has been great with making it work even though I was not equipped to put everything in place like I should’ve been, and I am greatly appreciative of that

"Though I initially felt some hesitation about the product after reading the online table of contents, my concerns were completely addressed after a call with Anton at the home office. He provided excellent reassurance that the final product would be exactly as stated and that I would be able to customize it with my business's information. Anton also assured me that ongoing support would be available to answer any questions and guide me through the process. Upon receiving and reviewing the handbook, it perfectly matched the description. I would not only purchase from this company again but also highly recommend them."
